The cutest tassels in the whole entire world have been hanging around the Internet. Have you spotted them?
We must first pay homage to the pioneer of the most luxurious tassely tassels on the entire planet. You know who I’m talking about. I really don’t even have to say her name.
The Nester is pretty much my hero, and her gorgeous tassels leave absolutely nothing to be desired. They look so soft and warm…I just want to rub them on my cheek like one of those psychos that you’d see in a movie. You can own your own tassely goodness directly from the Nester (insert squeal like a 31 12 year old seeing New Kids on the Block) by visiting her Etsy store.
I nearly fell off of the couch when I this adorable bird house tassel on a blog I happened upon.
Selia at Down The Rabbit Hole made this lovely. It doesn’t appear from her blog that she sells her tassels, but I think she should…especially after seeing this one she made:
A gnome tassel! I can’t get enough of this little guy. The colors are fantastic. Wouldn’t this be adorable in a playroom or on a back porch overlooking a lovely garden? I can actually picture exactly where it would be hung in my house.
Just in time for Easter, Megity has listed this darling tassel in her Etsy Store. I know bunnies are a plenty this time of year, but I am of the mindset that rabbits can be displayed in the home all year long.
I’m off to teach myself the fine art of tasseling…and I just may pass along some tips to you when I figure it out. I know you are totally freaking out over the thought of a tassel tutorial, huh? 😉
In the meantime, visit the shops listed above and support these wonderful Etsy artisans! And visit Julia at Hooked on Houses to see what others are hooked on this week.
Hey! I wouldn’t have figured on being a tassle fan if you asked me awhile back. But, it’s no secret we’re big fans of The Nester too and when we were up at The Nest, we got an awesome tassle for our Christmas tree! Now, I love tassles!
Have fun hanging them everywhere!

I don’t own any tassel, but after seeing so many in the blogging world, I find myself looking for places to put them.
What a fabulous collection of tassels! Thanks so much for sharing these photographs. ~Arleen

I’ve one of those that has a perfect tassel in mind but I just have never found it! Maybe I need to make my own from your tassel tutorial! Ha! First maybe I should just check out Nester’s shop! Thanks for the great ideas!

Tassels have come such a long way from what I remember seeing at my grandma’s house. I LOOOVVVEEE the gnome tassel!!!
Okay, the gnome tassel just cracks me up…I’d giggle every time I saw it if it were in my home!
Have have not ever seen tassels like these, seems you can do pretty much anything. Cool.
I love tassels and these are fabulous!!! I love the Easter Bunny and the Bird….Thanks for stopping by!!!
I was reading your post just now through HOH, and about fell on the floor when I saw you posted one of my tassels! (The Tassel House)
I’m blushing! Crazy thing – I do believe the red bird house is country warm – I sold it to a lady in Japan!
Thanks so much for including me!

Found your site from Hooked on Houses. I just love the The Tassel House. I have purchased many tassels through her shop and she is great to work with and her workmanship is meticulous.
Just thought I would pass this along to all of you who love tassels. Thanks for a great post!! Linda Christine lindasheirlooms@yahoo.com
I love tassels, too. I just bought one from The Nester and blogged about it this week, it’s gorgeous! There is a blog on my blog list that is all about tassels, you might want to check that one out, too.
Have a great weekend!
I think I need to start a club for all of us tasselers! Tasselholics anonoymous?
Thanks for Featuring Nesting Place
I have to admit I don't know where tassles should go besides as curtain ties, so I'm at a loss as to where those larger creations would look appropriate. BUT. Very cute. Maybe it's because I have all boys that I think of decor in more tailored ways?
BTW, Thanks for visiting my Blue & Green post!
I thought tassles were out of style, but not these. They are gorgeous! Thanks! Lisa~
I love them too! Oh these are so great! Thanks for the tip!!!
All the best,
Allison
those the cutest bout of necessities I’ve ever seen! Please, please post a tassel tutorial!
Very fun! I’ve admired the tassels around blogland as well and will have to check back for a tutorial.
Love the Nome tassel and I actually have his twin sitting on a shelf in my kitchen. Never thought to make him a tassel! Too cute!
